Hermaphroditism in Ruditapes decussatus (L.) (Bivalvia) from the Galician coast (Spain)
Inmature individuals of Ruditapes decussatus, collected from the Galician coast (Spain), were maintained in a laboratory open-flow seawater system over a 76-day period at a temperature of 18-20ºC and fed with Isochrysis galbana clone T-ISO.

Involvement of Metallothionein in Zn Accumulation and Elimination Strategies in Ruditapes decussatus
The aim of this study was to identify the involvement of metallothionein (MT) in Zn accumulation and elimination strategies in different tissues (gills, digestive gland, and remaining tissues) of Ruditapes decussatus. Clams were exposed to two Zn concentrations (100 and 1000 microg/L) for 40 days, followed by a depuration period of 50 days.

In the 80ies, in Southern Europe and in particular in Ria Formosa there was an episode of heavy mortality of the economically relevant clam Ruditapes (R.) decussatus associated with a debilitating disease (Perkinsosis) caused by Perkinsus olseni.

Heterozygote deficiency and population structure in the bivalve Ruditapes decussatus [PDF]
The genetic structure of the bivalve Ruditapes decussatus from a Mediterranean lagoon was investigated at seven enzymatic loci. Samples of adults collected at the same period in different localities were genetically homogeneous. Slight allele frequency differences were observed between two annual cohorts of spat.

Response of antioxidant systems to copper in the gills of the clam Ruditapes decussatus
Copper (Cu) is an essential element for biological systems, however, when present in excess, is toxic. Metallothioneins can play an important role in Cu homeostasis and detoxification. Moreover, Cu can catalyse the production of toxic hydroxyl radicals that cause lipid peroxidation but defence systems in the cells can limit the oxidative damage.

Seawater carbonate chemistry and physiological energetics of juvenile clams Ruditapes decussatus
Effects of coastal ocean acidification, other than calcification, were tested on juvenile clams (Ruditapes decussatus) during a controlled CO2 perturbation experiment. The carbonate chemistry of natural (control) seawater was manipulated by injecting CO2

Resistência antimicrobiana a β-lactâmicos, Colistina e Quinolonas em enterobactérias e Vibrio spp. isoladas de Ruditapes decussatus e Ruditapes philippinarum [PDF]
Currently, antibiotic resistance is presented globally as a serious problem that worsens daily, and since more resistant bacteria, with the capacity to transfer genes keep emerging, it becomes a topic of uttermost importance.
